It is reported that Nvidia will launch the GeForce RTX 3080 12GB at 6 a.m. Pacific Standard Time on January 11 (10 p.m. Beijing time on January 11). The pre-order or sale time will be the same day, but the pricing is not yet clear.
VideoCardz exposed the first photo of Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 12GB graphics card, model EVGA RTX 3080 12GB FTW3 Ultra, which is the high-end graphics card that EVGA will be released soon. Compared with the existing GeForce RTX 3080, the GDDR6X video memory used by the GeForce RTX 3080 12GB version has an increased capacity of 2GB, which means that the width of the video memory may increase from 320 bits to 384 bits. In addition, its SM number may increase to 70 groups, will be equipped with 8960 CUDA cores, and the TDP will also increase to 350W.
is similar to the previous situation of GeForce RTX 2060 12GB. Nvidia chose a relatively low-key way to launch GeForce RTX 3080 12GB. Currently, there are six models involving the core of GA104 and GA102 on consumer desktop platforms. Nvidia seems to choose to optimize the video memory configuration on newer GPUs, and is more concerned about the improvement of video memory capacity or speed. Because the product line is too cumbersome and the positioning is relatively close, it is unclear whether Nvidia will choose to disable some models, such as the original GeForce RTX 3080, to simplify the Ampere architecture GPU product line.
In the past few months, it has been reported that Nvidia will optimize the Ampere architecture and Turing architecture GPU product lines. The rumored GeForce RTX 3090 Ti (GA102-350), GeForce RTX 3080 12GB (GA102-220), GeForce RTX 3070 Ti 16GB (GA104-401), GeForce RTX 3050 (GA106-150) and GeForce RTX 2060 12GB (TU106-300), and only GeForce RTX 3070 Ti 16GB remains.
